Note: This PHP library follows the following practices:

• Namespaced under Enishant\MagicCurl
• Options are passed as an array instead of multiple arguments wherever possible
• All requests and responses are communicated using PHP CURL extension

Basic Usage

Instantiate the MagicCurl php instance with/without providing an options.

use Enishant\MagicCurl\MagicCurl;

$client = new MagicCurl;

Options

• create_log - Creates log for user agent, header, request and response.
• log_path - Provide log file path.
• debug - Display all php errors.
• user_agent - Custom User Agent name.

Create log file, update onwership & permissions

sudo touch /path/to/magiccurl.log

sudo chown www-data:www-data /path/to/magiccurl.log

sudo chmod 644 /path/to/magiccurl.log

use Enishant\MagicCurl\MagicCurl;

$options = [
	'create_log' => true,
	'log_path'   => '/path/to/magiccurl.log',
	'debug'      => true,
	'user_agent' => 'MagicCurl/1.0'
];

$client = new MagicCurl( $options );

The resources can be accessed via the $client object. All the methods invocations follows the following pattern

    // $client->function() to access the methods
    
    //Example - Request with GET method
    $client->get($url);
    $client->get($url, $payload, $headers);

    //Example - Request with POST method
    $headers = [
      'Accept: application/json',
      'Content-Type: application/json',
    ];
    $payload = ['data'=>'in array'];
    $client->post($url, $payload, $headers);
